Opening title sequence from the Marion Davies vehicle Polly of the Circus 1932, fifteen years after the Mae Marsh silent, this time co-starring Clark Gable. watch
Hoodoo Ann is D.W. Griffith-supervised and scripted (using the pseudonym Granville Warwick), although the actual direction is by Lloyd Ingraham. Mae Marsh is paired with Robert Harron; the actors had been often partnered since Biograph days, concurrently were in the modern story of Intolerance and continued to play leads together until Miss Marsh left the company at the end of 1916. Although the plot is a tangle of unlikely coincidence, the performers make it work, and "it is filled with those little touches for which Fine Arts pictures are famous," in the words of an original review. watch
